Why In- Board?

Your dog learns 2 years worth of communication skills in as little as 10 days!

My motivational training and proofing methods guarantee that your dog learns quickly, efficiently, and his skills are able to be used in any environment. The Process is called immersion. He learns in a fraction of the time and I teach you how to use the behaviors when he comes home. Instead of training him yourself, that requires years of work and relationship building; he comes home after 10-14 days, with multiple years-worth of proofed obedience skills. These tools are ready for you to use to build on the relationship of trust that he has put in me!

I train backward! I have been using this method for 25 years, without fail! Most trainers will tell you about "breaking down" your dog's problem behaviors and then using obedience to "build them back up." I don't do this. Problem behaviors begin when your dog is attempting to understand his environment and accidentally figures out how to reward himself. Instead of addressing those problem behaviors, unnecessarily, I focus on the skills to replace them. This helps eliminate those previous behaviors, organically, because your dog is understanding our communication as well as having his needs met. I start by (re-)training each behavior motivationally, using thousands of repetitions, to build muscle memory and trust. From his first step through the door, I show him the appropriate choices and make it easy for him to respond the way I'd like. Setting him up for success all the time. I show him every possible scenario, so that he knows exactly what is expected in any situation.  

My goal is to help you and your dog live life to the fullest. To do this, I give you the highest level of obedience that you WANT, and the communication your dog NEEDS to be able to live a happy healthy life. I have a program to fit any issues you might be having. From safety related behaviors like aggression and anxiety, to common exuberant behaviors like running away and jumping on guests. I will train and guarantee the skills needed to MAKE your best friend. Call or TEXT today!
